A nomogram for predicting stones recurrence in patients with bile duct stones undergoing laparoscopic common bile duct exploration.
Article in Annals of gastroenterological surgery, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 papers.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
Background: The recurrence of bile duct stones is a long-term outcome for patients undergoing laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) that is worthy of attention. This study aimed to investigate long-term risk factors for stones recurrence after LCBDE and develop a nomogram for predicting the risk. Methods: The clinical data on consecutive patients with bile duct stones undergoing LCBDE at Shanghai Tenth People's Hospital between January 2014 and February 2019 with a follow-up period longer than 2 years were reviewed. Independent risk factors of stones recurrence identified by the Cox regression model were used to develop a nomogram in predicting stones recurrence after LCBDE. Results: Eight hundred and twenty-two patients were eventually included in this study. Of these patients, 42 (5.11%) developed stones recurrence. The cumulative incidences of stones recurrence at 1, 3, and 5 years after LCBDE were 1.34%, 4.36%, and 7.14%, respectively. Independent risk factors of stones recurrence were identified to be age (HR = 1.04, 95% CI = 1.02-1.07), T-tube drainage (HR = 3.28, 95% CI = 1.23-8.72), fatty liver (HR = 2.69, 95% CI = 1.39-5.20), urinary calculus (HR = 4.68, 95% CI = 2.29-9.56), post-cholecystectomy (HR = 5.21, 95% CI = 2.39-11.33), and post-ERCP + EST (HR = 2.87, 95% CI = 1.18-6.96). By these factors, a developed nomogram showed a C-index of 0.770 to predict stones recurrence. Conclusions: The nomogram, based on identified risk factors, showed good accuracy for predicting stones recurrence, which is valuable to guide these patients' follow-up and prevention.
